Very easy to use device. Instructions are simple enough. Really good coffee.

Really impressed with the looks and features, although haven’t mastered all of them yet! The expresso is of a high quality, only issue I had was thinking I was missing the double cup shot but it was in the porta handle thing! Overall impressed with the looks, feel and taste would recommend!

Barrista style coffee made in your home. We love this machine, very easy to use once you have tried a couple of times. Great quality coffee and the milk frother creates the perfect texture for longer drinks.

After a decade of Nespresso and a year of illy iperespresso, both of which were great, it was time to move away from pods. This machine is first class. It heats up in the blink of an eye. You can switch from coffee to steam to water and back again with no real delay. The inbuilt grinder is adjustable to the nth degree, to allow for different beans. The grind size can be altered to get the perfect coffee extraction time and the amount can be tuned by increasing or decreasing the time length of the grind. This takes a bit of tinkering - watch some of the online videos to help, the engaging Scott's Kitchen review is particularly useful - with a bit of weighing but the end result is so much higher quality than any pod. Firstly you get better quality and stronger coffee.It stands to reason; Nespresso pods contain a miserly 5.5 g of coffee and i always needed 2 pods per serve, and Illy pods c 7g. A normal single shot is 9-11g ( and the grinder is consistently accurate once dialed in). Because the brewing head uses a fixed volume of water per shot rather than a time length, you can easily monitor extraction quality. The milk frother is top notch, quick and powerful. The system, like any manual espresso is not mess free, but it's a small price to pay for consistent, controllable, excellent coffee.

Relatively simple to use with good tasting coffees as a result. Just had it a week but on results so far I would recommend. To make frothy milk I would suggest a jug thermometer as it takes the guess work out of it.

Fantastic machine highly recommend Makes perfect barrister style coffee Can’t fault this machine

Great coffee machine of high quality and really easy to prepare all our favourite drinks. I’ve used a Gaggia machine before but this is much better. Love the built in grinder and we are able to have great freshly ground coffee in an instant. The display on the model is really straightforward and helpful. Love it .

I've been looking for one of these for a very long time. Having tried the usual off the shelf machines I was never satisfied. From day one this was my best purchase in years. Great coffee everytime. It's not fool proof but trial and error will produce dividends.
